CON
ECTORES, CABLE Y MATERIAL UTILIZADOS PARA CONECTAR EL CALENTADOR: Figura 2
UBICACIÓN DEL CALENTADOR: Figura 3
El calentador debe instalarse fuera de las áreas de tránsito y al menos a 6’ del piso (8” por encima del piso
en Canadá). No se debe obstaculizar la dirección del flujo de aire (con columnas, maquinarias, etc.) y el
flujo de aire debería acariciar las paredes expuestas, en lugar de soplar directamente sobre ellas. Cuando
se usa más de un calentador en un área, deben colocarse de modo que la descarga de aire de cada uno sea
compatible con el flujo de aire de los otros a fin de proporcionar la mejor circulación de aire caliente, como
se indica en la siguiente figura.

INSTRUCCIONES DE INSTALACIÓN
ADVERTENCIA: Peligro de caída: El calentador debe sujetarse a una viga con 3 tornillos (dos en los orificios de
los extremos y el tercer tornillo de seguridad en el orificio central) para evitar que se caiga. Los tornillos
provistos con el calentador están diseñados para ser colocados solo en estructuras de madera y no en vigas
metálicas u otros tipos de construcción. Si se instala en otro tipo de construcción, se requerirán herrajes
adicionales para una instalación correcta. Todos los herrajes deben ajustarse firmemente.
MONTAJE DEL CALENTADOR:
1. Localice el montante de madera o la viga en el techo y marque una línea en la ubicación donde se colocará
el calentador. NOTA: El soporte de montaje en pared/techo permite la colocación en una pared o techo
utilizando los orificios de montaje específicos y las distancias mínimas como se muestra en las Fig. 4, 5, 6 y 7.
2. Determine la ubicación deseada para el montaje asegurándose de respetar las distancias mínimas indicadas en este
manual. Utilice el soporte como guía, marque la ubicación de los dos orificios externos en la pared o el techo para
realizar las perforaciones.
Figura 7
3.
Utilice la broca de 5/32 pulgadas (4 mm) y perfore
dos orificios para tornillos en los lugares que se marcaron
en el paso 2.
4.
Coloque dos tornillos de 2,5” (65 mm) en los orificios
Dejando aproximadamente 1/8” del tornillo fuera de la
pared. Asegúrese de que ambos tornillos se hayan introducido
al menos 1,5” en la viga o montante.
5.
Enganche el soporte de montaje en la pared (o el techo) colocando los dos orificios sobre los dos tornillos y
empujando el soporte para acomodarlo en su lugar. Marque la ubicación del orificio central (tercera
seguridad) en la pared o el techo.
6.
Use la broca de 5/32 pulgadas (4 mm) para perforar previamente un orificio para el tercer tornillo de
seguridad.
7.
Fije el soporte de la manija al calentador usando los dos tornillos y arandelas premontados en la parte
superior del calentador asegurándose de que el orificio más pequeño del soporte quede orientado hacia la
parte trasera del calentador. Quite los tornillos y luego fije el soporte asegurándose de que ambos tornillos
queden ajustados.
8.
Fije el soporte de pared/techo al calentador utilizando el perno más grande de 20 mm (0,8”), dos arandelas
planas y contratuercas como se muestra en la Fig. 5. Para evitar una rotación, se proporciona un pequeño
tornillo y tuerca M10 mm en la bolsa de piezas. Coloque este tornillo en el orificio pequeño a través del
soporte de pared y el soporte del calentador como se muestra en la Fig. 5 y ajuste firmemente ambos pernos.
9.
Fije el soporte de montaje y calentador a la pared (o techo):
PRECAUCIÓN: - Las ranuras externas sirven para soportar temporalmente el calentador hasta que se
coloca el tercer tornillo de seguridad en el tercer orificio del soporte. Si no se coloca este tornillo en el orificio
central del soporte, el calentador podría caerse.
a. Enganche el soporte en los dos tornillos (los del Paso 4) colocando el calentador y el soporte
de pared/techo en los dos tornillos a través de los orificios del soporte y empujando el soporte
para acomodarlo en su lugar.
b. Coloque el tercer tornillo de seguridad de 2,5” (65 mm) en el orificio central del soporte
y en el orificio perforado previamente (Paso 6) en la pared o el techo.
c. Ajuste los tres tornillos para afirmar el soporte de montaje y el calentador a la pared.

Después de que el calefactor se haya montado
correctamente en la estructura del edificio, y de que
se haya fijado correctamente el circuito el cableado de
derivación hacia el calefactor de acuerdo con el
Código Eléctrico Nacional y los códigos locales, el
calentador ya está listo para ser conectado al circuito
de derivación.
Riesgo de descarga eléctrica o incendio Asegúrese
de que la energía eléctrica esté desconectada en el
panel eléctrico principal, antes de intentar conectar
el calefactor al circuito de derivación. Verifique que
el voltaje del circuito de derivación sea el mismo que
se indica en la placa de identificación del calefactor.
Si conecta el calefactor a un voltaje mayor al
clasificado en la placa de identificación, podría dañar
el calefactor y provocar un incendio.
El calentador está provisto de un orificio de 28.3 mm en el
compartimiento de cableado para enrutar los conductores del
circuito derivado. Se deben proporcionar conductos y accesorios
adecuados para una instalación correcta y segura.
